Tom And Jerry Classic Collection: Volumes One To Six

Nearly 18 hours of classic animation is contained in the Tom And Jerry Classic Collection: Volumes One To Six boxset. This is actually the most complete set available anywhere in the world, with only two original short films missing.

Various edits have been made to remove anything that could be considered a bit racist, but these only really amount to either dubbing or extreme close-ups.

Lee Evans: So What Now? Series One £4.97

Lee Evans: So What Now? Series One

Lee Evans: So What Now? sees Lee Evans starring as himself. He’s recently divorced and is starting to get back into the dating scene, whilst living in a bed and breakfast with best friend Stuart after being turfed out of his former home.

This comedy only lasted for one year, so the DVD release of Lee Evans: So What Now? Series One is essentially the only eight episodes ever made. There’s also some pretty funny outtakes and a documentary on the main man.

Woolworths are selling this for £4.97 - for more information on this cheap DVDs‘ availability, click here.

Gangster Triple Pack £4.99

Gangster Triple Pack

Donnie Brasco is loosely based on the real-life events of an FBI agent who successfully infiltrated the Bonanno crime family, a Mafia group active in New York during the 1970s, under the alias Donnie Brasco (hence the name of the film).

Traffic takes a look at the drug trade from various different angles - a user, an enforcer, a politician, and a trafficker - whose lives have an effect on one another, although they never meet. I bet you didn’t know that it’s adapted from a Channel 4 series called Traffik - well now you do!

Charlie sees former Bros member Luke Goss portraying the head of the notorious Richardson Gang. They sound like a very nice bunch of guys, what with the fact that they used to nail people to the floor and pull out teeth with pliers.
